1891 - 1980enA Quote by Henry Millerhttp://blog.gaiam.com/quotes/authors/henry-miller/69122
<p>If we are always arriving and departing, it is also true that we are eternally anchored. One's destination is never a place, but rather a new way of looking at things.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>True strength lies in submission which permits one to dedicate his life, through devotion, to something beyond himself.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>Your whole past is like a long sleep which would have been forgotten had there been no memory, but remembrance is there in the blood and the blood is like an ocean in which everything is washed away but that which is new and more substantial even than life - <i>reality</i>.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>Every day we slaughter our finest impulses. That is why we get a heart-ache when we read those lines written by the hand of a master and recognize them as our own, as the tender shoots which we stifled because we lacked the faith to believe in our own powers, our own criterion of truth and beauty. Every man, when he gets quiet, when he becomes desperately honest with himself, is capable of uttering profound truths. We all derive from the same source. There is no mystery about the origin of things. We are all part of creation, all kings, all poets, all musicians; we have only to open up, to discover what is already there.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>No man is great enough or wise enough for any of us to surrender our destiny to. The only way in which anyone can lead us is to restore to us the belief in our own guidance.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>We are dancing in the hollow of nothingness. We are one flesh, but separated like stars.<br /><br /></p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">

<p>The artist is the opposite of the politically minded individual, the opposite of the reformer, the opposite of the idealist. The artist does not tinker with the universe, he recreates it out of his own experience and understanding of life.</p><div class="field field-type-text field-field-contrib-user">
